New Gift feature from SMULE

does someone try the new feature call Gifts from the activity tap? i wonder how it's going to work ( gifts that you will receive from your recordings ) i am trying to get more information about it

Good question! I played Santa Claus last night to experiment 😂 and bought a bundle and gave out a few gifts to a few users of my favorite recordings. It gave me a gift as well in the duets, which I find wasteful. I also wonder if and how the users get notified and what, if anything, they will receive after they get to a certain level of gifts. But the free gift would not work, not with my account and I am VIP. I could not send it to anyone, and it had a notice that “personal message is disabled with this gift” and would not allow me to send. There is another karaoke app with the gift feature, but it doesn’t have the same overall quality features as the Smule app, so I am assuming this is one way of Smule’s way of competing and making money, but it is also a way in creating a nicer environment on the app. I read the information about gift giving, but it was not very specific. Maybe other users will chime in with more knowledge.

I’m sure there will be an article on the Smule blog shortly and maybe more details in their FAQ section. 

In the meantime, I might write something about it in our article section.

I need to clarify one of the above statements I posted. I can indeed send the free gifts now. When you click on the free gifts, you have to select the user (check mark) and then hit send, but I was right about including a personal message. You cannot with the free gifts. Money talks! 😉😆😂 Jk!

uffff... don't like this feature. IMHO it takes way more space from the screen than what it gives back as a feature.

For me, the likes is enough recognition ... and a personal message much better.

Yes, BrainDad, I get what you’re saying. Loving and commenting is sufficient in regards to recognition, but I figure there hopefully will be more to the new feature than just recognition. Maybe Smule will give out prizes to the user who gives or receives the most gifts. Maybe some iPads ... or a new car. 😆🤣 JK! Seriously, I am hoping we will learn more soon.
